This laboratory manual was prepared to supplement the textbook Holes Essentials of Human Anatomy and Physiology, Fourteenth Edition, by Dr. Charles Welsh and Cynthia Prentice-Craver. As in the textbook, the laboratory manual is designed for students with minimal backgrounds in the physical and biological sciences pursuing careers in professional health fields.
The laboratory manual contains forty-nine laboratory exercises and reports closely integrated with the chapters of the textbook. The exercises are planned to illustrate and review the anatomical and physiological facts and principles presented in the textbook and to help students investigate some of these ideas in greater detail.
